Comment on An Interview with the Old Man of Floating-Point (1998)parent

"The End of Error: Unum Computing" is written for a popular audience, not fellow mathematicians. Only high school math is needed, and it's got plenty of humor and full-color illustrations and figures, in an attempt to make a very dry topic into something interesting.

A book on posit arithmetic is in the works.
